A SUMMER COLORADO WEDDING DAY AT DELLA TERRA MOUNTAIN CHATEAU

 

Jessica and Bruce’s summer wedding at Della Terra Mountain Chateau in Estes Park, Colorado was one for the books and is one I will always remember forever!

Jessica and Bruce are two of the sweetest, most adventurous and fun people ever and I feel so grateful to have gotten to photograph both their engagement photos and their wedding, and to have gotten to be a part of this time in their lives! We did their engagement session at Dream Lake in Rocky Mountain National Park the fall prior (check out the full post here!) which was so fun getting to spend the evening hiking with them and getting to know them. It made their wedding day so seamless and felt like spending the day with old friends!

Jessica and Bruce’s wedding day at Della Terra was the most perfect Colorado summer day. From the bright sun shining to the greenery everywhere, and even the wildflowers (!!) - I don’t think it could’ve been any more perfect! They did such an amazing job playing into the natural beauty of the venue and the scenery with all of the details and decor, and incorporated the mountains and Colorado into everything in the most perfect way! The whole day was filled with so much fun, laughter, and these two really just enjoying the day and each other.

If you’re looking for a stunning, elegant mountain wedding venue on the most gorgeous property in Estes Park, Colorado - definitely check out Della Terra Mountain Chateau! It is one of my favorites and I always feel so fortune when I have the opportunity to photograph weddings here!
